    'LYDIA, baptized in Wood Ditton, England, July 14, 1616; came to Wethersfield with her parents in 1635; married Robert Howard of Windsor, Conn., ... He died in 1684. His wife survived him; and in a deposition made by her, at Windsor, Sept. 3, 1684, she says she is "aged 70 years or thereabouts." [citing MS. of N. Goodwin, Esq., Hartford]'

    'HOWARD, Robert (1613-1684) & Lydia [KILBOURNE] (1616-), m/2 Samuel HAYES?; ca 1642?; Dorchester/Windsor, CT'

    If Lydia married Samuel Hayes, she would have been at least 70 when she married him. Torrey does not include a separate entry for this supposed second marriage. Jacobus, in Hale, House (655), does not include a second marriage for Lydia (Kilbourn) Hayward/Howard, but notes that she died "after 1684" based, presumably on her 3 Sep 1684 deposition.
